We all heard of the saying that travel is the best test of your friendship, either making or breaking it by the end of your trip. Well we see why is it so – spending a considerably long amount of time together gives you the opportunity to know more about your companion as a person and learning about their somewhat strange habits. To prevent any bad feelings from accumulating over your trip, it’s important to choose your travel partners carefully. Here are five friends that definitely make the cut for every personality!
1. The one you share bromance/womance with

This is your friend who comforts you when you break up with your significant other and vice-versa, they are the ones you ditch your dates for when they are downhearted. It’s great to travel with them because they know everything about you and you’re so comfortable with each other that you don’t have to be chattering away every second of the day – even moments of silence never feel uncomfortable with them!

Paris is the best place to be with your your bosom friend. Looking at how often you can both openly express how much you admire each other, spending time in the City of Love together wouldn’t even be awkward! Wearing matching headbands at Disneyland Paris, admiring famous paintings in Louvre and having a picnic below Eiffel Tower – these are just some of the many ways to complete your Paris experience.

With innumerable things you can do with your sibling from another mother, there’s something for everyone – even those who want every piece of Paris can choose to go on a tour to explore the highlights of Paris. Riding on a double decker bus admiring the illuminated monuments of Paris after the sun sets, you’ll see why this place is also known as La Ville Lumière (City of Lights)!
2. Pranksters from your schooling days

They were the comedians, charming in their own ways. The life and soul of any party, they will never be the ones dampening your mood during the trip and they’re sure to spice your vacation up no matter the destination. Their quick wittedness will help in many ways whether serious situations like preventing pickpockets or when you’re solving a tricky puzzle in one of the most popular team-building activities in recent years – escape room.

| Holidays are made better with friends |
Challenge the wits of your class clown with Seoul’s action-packed dynamic race consisting of 15 stages designed to make your heart race with exhilaration. It’s an adventure not for the fainthearted! Even if you don’t make it out within the stipulated time, don’t fret – you can be sure that your happy-go-lucky comrade won’t blame you for it.
3. The gym rat

We all know someone who’s crazy about working out and they may have even taken part in a few bodybuilding contests. If you travel with your gym-crazy friend, they’ll make sure you stay on your work out routine. More than that, you’ll never worry about getting mugged! Of course, they’ll drag you on countless adventures but it’s a little price to pay considering how locals will think twice before trying to extort you with your bodybuilder friend around.

Need some help convincing the muscleman to go on your holiday with you? They will not be able to resist getting a healthy dose of Vitamin D from an upstream adventure – a different experience from the typical rafting down of waterfalls. It’s too difficult to withstand the temptation of this breathtaking ride that passes 14 rapids!
4. Your buddies from BMT

This one’s for the bros. They say you don’t understand military life until you’re in it and it’s true! Nothing bonds a friendship like being forced to spend 24/5 with each other, sleeping in the same bunk and complaining about cookhouse food. You chiong sua and brave through the 24km route march together but at the end of the day, you have to admit you fondly recall your BMT days – a feeling your girlfriend never understands.
 |
| Military mates makes the best travel companions |
What better way to reminiscence your army days than to explore the Korean Demilitarized Zone? Littered with soldiers from, DMZ – an invisible line dividing North and South Korea – is known as the world’s most heavily fortified border. While you’re there, take a walk along the Bridge of Freedom once used by more than 13 000 prisoners of war returning from the North.

Following the tour, you’ll also be able to sneak a rare peek into the world’s most reclusive country, North Korea – the country with the longest compulsory military services in the world (11 years for males, 7 years of females). You’ll never complain the 22 months prior to your ORD again!
